Explore Logs plugin installed by default

Explore Logs is a plugin that lets you automatically visualize and explore your logs without having to write queries. It makes finding spikes in your log volume, filtering your logs and pinpointing problematic log lines a lot easier and more smooth.

While Explore Logs is GA in cloud and installed by default already, with Grafana v11.3.0 it will be automatically installed on your on-prem instance as well. This will let you use Explore Logs alongside Explore Metrics.

This is configured by the preinstall configuration parameter in your Grafana configuration. For more information about Explore logs, refer to the documentation.
